Genetically modified food are a very controversial issue. On the one hand, we can make a lot of food in a small area, which is great for our expanding population. At the same time, genetically modified foods are creating “super-weed” since we can modify foods to resist weed growth, there are new strains of weeds that are resistant. Also, some genetically modified foods can lack nutrients, and not to mention they do not have to be labeled. You could be eating a genetically modified food right now.

What could happen if a mutation in a gene caused a hydrophobic amino acid in a polypeptide to be replaced by a hydrophilic amino
Marysya12 [62]

The new hydrophilic amino acid would not form the same interactions with hydrophobic R groups. As a consequence,   protein's 3D structure would likely be affected.

Different types of amino acids have different properties and thus form different interactions. For example, hydrophobic amino acids (water-repelent) such as alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, cysteine and methionine. participate in van der Waals type of interactions. They often form the hydrophobic core of the protein which doesn’t interact with water surrounding.

On the other hand, hydrophilic amino acids (arginine, asparagine, glutamine, aspartat..) are polar, can dissolve in the water and can join the hydrogen bond network.

zaharov [31]

Answer and Explanation:

In the case when you move outwards from a tree so there would be more growth, the reasons are as follows:

1. The block i.e. left and light near tree permits lesser photosynthesis as in the tree

2. But if you move outwards so there would be more light

3. Also it permit plants to photosynthesis that generates greater amount of glucose and proteins for growth

In this way it would be explained
